I know its dangerous and what not, but if you find a nice big open empty parking lot with alot of snow on the ground, it is so much fun. you dont have to go over 15 mph, and its soooooo smoooth. bah im stupid, i JUST got my back too. ironically, i wasn't TRYING to drive like an idiot when i screwed it up but no, does anyone else enjoy this wonderful pasttime?

 

lol take a video.. but most parking lots have walls, light posts and those concrete stoppers, those are not fun to hit hahaha.. sounds like fun to watch

 

haha, well, you just have to be careful. people hear words like drift or ghostride or what ever the devil kids are doing with thier cars these days and immidiately assume you are doing it drunk or just irresponsibly. If you just go slow to get a feel for it, make sure nothing/no one is around, and learn how your car reacts to the conditions you can do it pretty safely. Idk, i didn't get my car over 20 and when i actualy did drift i was only going 8.

 

i did that before with my old tc, good times.

 

i would do it with my old car. i wish i had more videos of it though

get a RWD car and have some REAL fun.

 

too bad there's no snow here. lol. well, not realy. i <3 no snow

 

dude I'm a F*$&ing E-brake king in the snow!


haha that ish is so fun! I know exactly what your talking about. I've been wanting to make a video for so long.

The only thing I hate is how much snow gets sprayed up on the car. I just washed my car and the forecast is clear a for a bit *knocks on wood* so even though I know a few unplowed lots, I wont be sliding for a while now. I hate how dirty cars get in the winter.

and your right its not dangerous as long as your not stupid. just avoid walls, block, posts, etc and strictly choose lots that are completely empty and I do not think your are doing anything wrong.

Snowdrift FTW haha

 

i should make a video in my Caddy for you guys.
i dont have to use the e-brake.

 

lol that definitely isnt henderson

 

brian head in the navajo upper lot

 

ahhhh nice i think im heading back up there on tuesday i believe

 

I worked security for 5 years at major design companies warehouse here in NJ. When it snowed really bad they would no open, So I was alone for sometime up to 14 hours. So I had a lot of winter snow days of driftting my car around the parking lot. it was great cause the parking lot had only one island. and I would drift around it on snowy days. and sometimes on rainy days. I haven't done this on the tc yet.

but here are some pix of where I worked. and my celica that I used to drift.

 

hehe, i've got a high school with a huge parking lot next to my house. So on the way back home from work.... :D

 

Every time I try to play around with the tc in parking lots its just a let down. Rear wheel drive is soooooooo much more fun when messing around. Back in high school me and my friend would sit there doing donuts on the ice covered school parking lot for 15 minutes straight and the tires wouldn't even have noticeable wear. Dry donuts on the otherhand...got a flat tire after 2 minutes once....oops

 

yes it is fun...one time i was just turning *did not plan to drift* but it was so fun drifting in middle of the street.
and i was kinda scared too!!

 

its amd fun, i go in reverse a lot, just cut the wheels and go in reverse, the rear locks into place and its the front of the car that goes in circles!! mad fun

 

I've never tried reverse doughnuts lol

funny thing, when I used to have my xB I could actually pull off a full doughnut just by working the e-brake correctly

not so much luck with the tC but big sweeping drifts are more fun anyway :-)

 

haha i cant do donuts but i can do 180s. now i use it to park haha, when i pull up, i grab the ebrake so it swings the back closer to the curb, instead of straitening out. of coarse, i dont do this in citys, just in nieghborhoods.
